The Timeguard STW360 Suretime Surface Mount 360° PIR is a practical indoor motion sensor for automatic lighting control. It is designed to switch lights on when movement is detected, helping make everyday areas safer, more convenient and more energy efficient.
This ceiling-mounted PIR sensor is ideal for areas where lights are often left on, such as hallways, landings, toilets, cupboards, corridors, utility rooms, storerooms, garages, offices and communal indoor spaces. Once installed, the sensor detects movement and switches the connected lighting on automatically, then turns it off again after the selected time delay.
The STW360 provides 360° detection from a ceiling position, giving wide coverage across the room. When mounted at approximately 2.5m height, it offers an 8m diameter detection range, making it suitable for many standard domestic and light commercial rooms. The surface mount design means it sits on the ceiling and does not require a recessed cut-out.
For flexible setup, the Timeguard STW360 includes an adjustable ON time from 3 seconds to 18 minutes. This allows the light to stay on for a short time in quick-use areas, or longer in rooms where people may remain for more time. The adjustable lux setting from 10 to 1000 lux allows the sensor to be set so lights only come on when the surrounding light level is low enough.
The unit is suitable for LED lighting loads up to 200W and halogen loads up to 1000W, making it a dependable choice for many indoor lighting circuits. It also includes a manual override pulse function for extended light-on times, plus support for wiring up to 5 STW360 sensors in parallel, provided the total load does not exceed the rating of a single unit.
Finished in white with a compact polycarbonate body, the STW360 is a clean and discreet ceiling PIR sensor for homes, rental properties, offices and shared indoor areas. It is IP40 rated for restricted internal applications and should be installed by a qualified electrician.
